Seth,

This didn't strike me as the same bug when I first ran into it.  The
error message is (I think) complaining about that yum is trying to
install the wrong arch.  I've got i386, i686, and athlon packages.  Of
course, they must match the kernel arch because they are kernel modules.

I'll try your latest snapshot.

Jack
